A stubble cultivator can only reach its full potential if its tillage tools are designed for the most challenging conditions. These requirements are met by chisel points in different grades of hardness as well as other share geometries such as narrow points.
In order to move the whole surface, wing shares are available as an option with different levels of wear resistance.
Because the time windows for soil cultivation are getting smaller and smaller, each productive minute counts. DURASTAR and DURASTAR PLUS wear parts ensure maximum service life of points and wings because they are made of the hardest materials.
The CLASSIC chisel point with a width of 80 mm impresses in action due to its tapered point with a good soil penetration characteristics even in very hard soils. The flat face of the point lifts the soil between the tip and the optional wings. This effect remains the same for a long time even when the point is worn.
This chisel point features a special geometry and tapers from 80 to 50 mm with an increased cross section in the main wear zones. It is made of high quality steel with a high breaking strength. The efficient shape results in less tractive power being needed while achieving a good mixing effect.
The chisel point is equipped with extremely resistant tungsten carbide plates. These ensure a long service life, retain the shape of the point and maintain its sharp tip. The consistent shape of this tillage tool ensures a constant soil penetration depth while the angle of the tool remains unchanged. As a result, soil penetration characteristics and mixing performance stay the same.
The front face of the point has a scale shape. The resulting soil-on-soil contact reduces frictional wear and protects the material behind it. Ultimately, the DURASTAR chisel point achieves a service life that is four times longer, depending on the soil.
The principle geometry of the DURASTAR PLUS chisel point is similar to that of the DURASTAR version. An even larger area of the substrate material is protected by additional tungsten carbide plates from the side edges to the centreline. In addition, the blade of the point is completely covered with a tungsten carbide layer, which is ideal for stony conditions. The extension of the back reduces friction behind it so the point retains a sharp tip for a long time. Consistent soil penetration characteristics and constant working results are guaranteed.
Compared to the DURASTAR point, this version offers around twice the service life. There is a recess to create a smooth transition between the point and the wings to optimise soil flow and extend their service life.
The CLASSIC wing share, with a total wing width of 350 mm, ensures sufficient coverage to move the whole soil surface. The wing can be attached to the point in two different positions using one bolt. As a result, the angle in relation to the ground can be optimised to achieve a shallow or intensive mixing effect.
The wear resistance of the DURASTAR wing is increased along the back of its cutting edge with a thermal deposition of tungsten carbide particles. Armouring the wing share in this way retains its shape for longer and protects it against stone impact. This doubles its service life compared to the CLASSIC wing share.
With the tungsten carbide plates on the cutting edge, the wear resistance of this wing share is increased fourfold. The original geometry of the wing is retained for a long time so that reliable movement of the soil is guaranteed.
The 40 mm wide DURASTAR narrow point is especially designed for deep loosening to break up compaction without churning the soil. The extended length of the point means that no additional wings are required. The tip of the point is coated with tungsten carbide. Reliable soil penetration and an extended service life are ensured as a result.
As with the DURASTAR and DURASTAR PLUS chisel points, part of the face has a scaled surface. This protects the steel by reducing frictional wear due to the soil-on-soil contact.
The TERRIA can be equipped with the right tools to match the soil conditions and achieve specific working results. Ultimately, any combination of the various grades of chisel points and wing shares can be configured to optimise the performance of the machine.
